Just behind the Finnish Parliament building is Happy Jazz Club Storyville – one of the best jazz clubs in Europe. To entertain clients Storyville hosts Finnish and foreign jazz bands four evenings a week. At Storyville you can also enjoy Cajun & Creole cuisine every night until 2 am.

Storyville

Jazz lives at Storyville

There, the solos, talk and drinks flow until four in the morning. The dancefloor is often crowded as domestic and foreign bands play everything from Dixieland to swing, blues and rock. If you want to taste the Creole-accented food downstairs, a table reservation is advised. Try the Shrimps Bayou, a tantalising appetiser served in an escargot dish.

Garden Terrace open daily

Storyville’s summer patio is located under big trees on a park across the street. Tables are arranged from the stone outcropping that supports the House of Parliament to the statue of the ”peasant president” Kyösti Kallio. Band plays late into the summer nights. Live music from 7pm to 10 pm.
Garden Terrace serves cool drinks and charcoal grilled street food in a stylish athmosphere. Open daily from 14 pm to 2 am between May-August.
